Given tan g = 5/12, find cos g:
5
tan g = ———
12
The tangent function is, by definition, the quotient between sine and cosine:
sin g 5
———— = ———
cos g 12
Product of them extremes = product of the means
12 · sin g = 5 · cos g
Square both sides:
(12 · sin g)² = (5 · cos g)²
12² · sin² g = 5² · cos² g
144 · sin² g = 25 · cos² g
But sin² g = 1 – cos² g. Substitute it for sin² g into the equation above, and you have
144 · (1 – cos² g) = 25 · cos² g
Multiply out the brackets, and then isolate cos² g:
144 – 144 · cos² g = 25 · cos² g
144 = 25 · cos² g + 144 · cos² g
144 = 169 · cos² g
Divide both sides by 169:
144
cos² g = ———
169
12²
cos² g = ———
13²
cos² g = (12/13)²
Now, take the square root of both sides:
cos g = ± √(12/13)²
12
cos g = ± ———
13
The sign of cos g depends on which quadrant the angle g lies. As tan g = 5/12, which is positive, then g lies either in the 1st or the 3rd quadrant:
• If g lies in the 1st quadrant, then
5
cos g > 0 ⇒ cos g = ——— ✔
13
• If g lies in the 3rd quadrant, then
5
cos g < 0 ⇒ cos g = – ——— ✔
13
I hope this helps. =)

Answer: the dependent variable is the seconds and the independent variable is the feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
independent means it not dependent and the nmber of feet keep changing while it goes down, while the seconds stay the same the whole time at 7.
Answer:
70
Step-by-step explanation:
180 -(60+65) = 180 - 125 = 55
180 - (50 + 55) = 180 - 105 = 75
180 - (35 + 75) = 180 - 110 = 70
